Background
Chronic Anterior Dislocation
Calvet describes a high risk of axillary artery rupture in chronic dislocation (68 out of 91 chronic anterior shoulder dislocations)[1]Verhaegen reported two cases of axillary artery rupture in patients with reduction of a chronic shoulder dislocation (12 weeks)[2] A safe rule would be orthopedic consultation and proceed with caution in patients with 3-4 week dislocation[3]
Types
Differential Diagnosis
Shoulder and Upper Arm Diagnoses
Traumatic/Acute:
- Shoulder Dislocation
- Clavicle fracture
- Humerus fracture
- Scapula fracture
- Acromioclavicular joint injury
- Glenohumeral instability
- Rotator cuff tear
- Biceps tendon rupture
- Triceps tendon rupture
- Septic joint
Nontraumatic/Chronic:
- Rotator cuff tear
- Impingement syndrome
- Calcific tendinitis
- Adhesive capsulitis
- Biceps tendinitis
- Subacromial bursitis
- Cervical radiculopathy
Refered pain & non-orthopedic causes:
- Referred pain from
- Neck
- Diaphragm (e.g. gallbladder disease)
- Brachial plexus injury
- Axillary artery thrombosis
- Thoracic outlet syndrome
- Subclavian steal syndrome
- Pancoast tumor
- Myocardial infarction
- Pneumonia
- Pulmonary embolism
Management
- See individual type
